One line was missing, namely "Dinger Xul Edinazzu".
Actually one of the most easy to understand lines. I agree that this probably is based on a Sumerian text (or at least on fragments of it), but it's a truly horrible transliteration. I found an interview with the band where they say they took the text from a scientific website, but I doubt it - it's the same text which can also be found in the Simon Necronomicon, a pseudo-grimoire from 1977.
The line I mentioned, for example, would in proper Sumerian be something like "diğir gul edenazu", meaning "evil god, your steppe", or maybe "evil god, (go) towards your steppe" (the "towards" is quite often omitted).

I think he meant desert, not dessert. "Dessert" makes it sound funny and silly.

I think you wanted to leave this comment beneath the English translation and not beneath the lyrics.
